I'm raving about their fish. Friday I was in there and bought tuna steaks. Brought them home, seasoned them with a bit of lemon oil, salt and pepper and grilled them -- they were out of this world. Tuna is not my favorite fish, but these were the best I think I've ever had.
So Saturday I was inspired to return to pick up some shellfish for a paella. Shrimp, scallops, mussels, a lobster tail and for texture, some smoked chorizo sausage. It was all excellent, but the scallops were just amazing. They were expensive, but I have to say that considering their flavor and texture they were worth it. I foresee another dish that focuses just on scallops in the near future.
So I'm taking a chance tomorrow on some Ashley Farms chicken breasts. My neighbor told me that these are amazing. (the man behind me was buying bone in pork chops and they looked wonderful and thick - perfect for grilling.)
They also had Alabama strawberries. Now, I won't lie and say that these were the best I ever had, but they were PDG.
So after a couple of months and numerous visits, I still believe it is a great addition to the lake area. I might feel differently if they were to open a Whole Foods in Alex City, but I doubt that will happen any time soon.
